Let the cabeza-banging begin! Metalachi, the self-proclaimed “world's first and only heavy-metal mariachi band” returns to town this weekend with sombreros that twinkle and trajes of leather. Metalachi's metal tribute sound is like something out of Quentin Tarantino's dusty “Kill Bill” and “Django Unchained.” Relying on traditional instruments, the band hilariously growls, screams and grinds its way through versions of Guns N' Roses “Sweet Child O' Mine” and Ozzy Osbourne's “Crazy Train.” Strictly lengua en cachete.
